The Phoenix Trio has appeared at Wigmore Hall and all over the UK and is made up of three world-class musicians in their own right: violinist Jonathan Stone, cellist Christian Elliott and pianist Sholto Kynoch.

Their programme includes one of Haydn’s most popular chamber works and Brahms’ first trio, written in the year that his close friend Robert Schumann was committed to an asylum.
